Inspired by the feeling of loneliness in a hyperconnected world, I designed a flexible system of structures to invite conversation and support placemaking. Constructed of dimensional lumber, the users can customize the temporary structures to any open space. The modular design expands from a simple base to larger configurations such as pavilions or outdoor markets. Designing to support accessible third spaces, a home-away-from-home, inspires the name, "Make yourself at home." After graduating with a BFA in Product Design and minors in Landscape Architecture and Chinese, I plan to continue my career focusing on urban and inclusive design.
